ValetPro wash, decontamination and protection

Snow foam. pH Neutral Snow Foam is for regular maintenance washes. Advanced Neutral cleans tougher grime with less foam. Foamula 1 combines cleaning with a thicker foam: 100 to 300ml in the lance bottle topped up to 1 litre, left for five minutes without drying. Snow Foam Combo 2 is alkaline, for stripping old protection before a reset. Also Citrus Pre Wash.

Shampoo. Advanced Poseidon is a gloss-enhancing shampoo at 30ml in 5 litres of water. Ceramic Shampoo adds SiO2-derived protection at 15ml in 5 litres, which ValetPro rates at up to four weeks. Also Concentrated Car Wash, and for caravans Caravan Wash and Shine and Luxury Caravan Wash.

Wheels and decontamination. Bilberry is an alkaline, acid-free wheel cleaner for painted and lacquered wheels: neat for heavy dirt or 1:10 for light, never left to dry, then pressure rinsed. It is not for unlacquered or polished rims. Dragon's Breath is a neutral gel that turns red as it reacts with iron fallout on wheels and paint: on a washed, cool car, leave it five minutes without drying, rinse, then wash again. Then Citrus Tar and Glue Remover, Bug Remover and clay bars in mild, medium and heavy, with Clay Rider lubricant.

Protection. Snow Seal goes on through the foam lance (50ml with 250ml of water) and is rinsed before drying; keep it off the windscreen and do not use it on convertibles. Citrus Bling is a spray protection and drying aid, about four weeks on its own; Indulgence Cream Wax is a carnauba liquid wax lasting a few months; Matte Protect protects matte paint and vinyl without adding gloss.

Shop by type: snow foam, car shampoo, wheel cleaners and iron and fallout removers.
